"It's not you, it's me!"

My preferred mailer (Mutt) re-orders replied-to mails by putting them
to the top of my Inbox.  At which point I have to re-navigate down to
the next patch to review.  This is fine for most submissions, but you
have fired ~30, mostly individual patches at me.  Most of which could
realistically be squashed into ~5 patches (if I was feeling mean).

The choice is yours though, either squash them into patches dealing
with the same type of fix-up or merely send all of the un-applied
patches again as a single set, so I can deal with them in a sane
manner.

I'm not sure I can decipher this.

I'd like you to do the following please:

  - Pull all un-applied MFD patches into a single branch based on Mainline
  - Add any Reviewed-by/Acked-by's you've received
  - Fix the subject lines on all of the patches 's///: /'
  - Resubmit as one single threaded patch-set
